Sister Cities – Toolbox

It’s been almost 2 years to the day since Phoenix’s Sister Cities appeared here. In that time ex-Power of Dreamer Keith Walker has gone from being the band’s manager to being their drummer. This has led to a tour both here and in the UK. Not a bad start and when you hear how they’ve followed up on the faultless ‘White Dress’ you’ll start to believe that they really have something special going on. ‘Toolbox’ is as much up tempo as it is down tempo but its most refreshing characteristic is how original it sounds. I can even hear something from the Apprentice theme tune in there. Sorcery on this scale won’t go unnoticed for too much longer, now that’s what I call Positivity. KD
